Chapter 233 Meeting between the Parents of Both Parties (2)
Lin Qing's father, Lin Boxiang, has always been an introvert and is usually taciturn; and Lu Haochen is also a man of few words and seems aloof on the outside.
But before coming here, Lu Haochen received an important task specifically assigned by his wife Yang Nuolin - he must actively chat with his father-in-law and find ways to make him happy.
So, Lin Boxiang and Lu Haochen just exchanged simple greetings at first, but gradually, their topic turned to work.
What was surprising was that they unexpectedly learned that they both had a special liking for tasting a little fine wine. After having a common interest, it was as if they had opened up a conversation box. The more they talked, the more speculative they became. In a blink of an eye, they became familiar with each other and their relationship became much closer.
Yang Nuolin noticed that the two men were talking happily, and she couldn't help but feel secretly happy, and secretly cast an admiring look at Lu Haochen.
Lu Haochen immediately understood what his wife meant and quickly gave her a reassuring look.
Lin Qing's mother, Wu Wanhong, had never had any contact with wealthy families before, but she often heard in the news that a certain woman's family was looked down upon by her in-laws.
So before coming to meet her in-laws, she made sufficient mental preparation.
But after such a short period of contact and communication, she was surprised to find that Lin Qing's mother-in-law was not at all like what was described in the news. She did not give people any sense of oppression, but made people feel very comfortable.
Dad was chatting with his uncle, laughing from time to time; Mom was chatting with her aunt about family matters; my brother and sister-in-law were looking at each other affectionately, with smiles on their faces.
Only Lu Jianing was sitting there, eating snacks boredly, swiping the screen of her mobile phone mechanically, unable to get a word in. She suddenly felt a little pitiful.
Lu Jianing finally couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, isn't my brother-in-law here yet?"
When Lin Qing heard this, he suddenly came to his senses and realized that everyone had left Lu Jianing aside. He suddenly felt a little guilty.
She quickly took out her cell phone and called her brother Lin Rui: "Hey, where are you? Are you outside the restaurant already? Okay, wait a moment, I'll pick you up."
After saying that, he hung up the phone in a hurry, stood up and said to everyone, "You guys continue chatting, I'll go out and pick up Lin Rui."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Yanqi also stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
Lin Qing was slightly stunned, but then nodded: "Okay, let's go." The two smiled at each other, and then walked towards the door together.
Yang Nuolin's gentle voice came from behind: "Go quickly and come back soon!"
After a while, the door of the private room opened again, and Lin Rui walked in behind his sister and brother-in-law.
He looked up and saw that everyone was already seated. He realized that everyone might be waiting for him, so he immediately said apologetically, "Hello everyone, I'm sorry, I'm late."
Yang Nuolin, who was sitting nearby, noticed this polite and handsome young man and was very happy. She smiled and took over the conversation: "You are Lin Rui, right? You are so handsome! We just arrived a while ago, come over here and sit down."
"Hello, aunt." Lin Rui responded politely and humbly.
Lin Rui walked to the empty seat next to Lu Jianing. Lu Jianing stood up, with a smile on her face, and greeted Lin Rui in a sweet voice: "Hello, brother Lin Rui, I'm Lu Jianing. I've heard my sister-in-law mention you before, and I finally meet you in person." He is really handsome and charming.
Unfortunately, she didn't dare say the following words, for fear that her parents would criticize her for being a fangirl.
Lin Rui smiled and nodded at her, responding: "Hello, Sister Jianing." After that, he sat down safely beside Lu Jianing.
After everyone arrived, Yang Nuolin signaled the waiter to serve the food.
The waiters quickly brought out sumptuous dishes, and the table was filled with tempting aromas.
Yang Nuolin was smiling at the dinner table and enthusiastically invited everyone to start eating and enjoy the food.
At this moment, she was not in a hurry to mention matters related to the wedding, but thought about finding a suitable opportunity to mention it after dinner.
As for more specific details, it won’t be too late to discuss them in detail tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
After all, the most important task tonight is to entertain the in-laws well and make them feel comfortable and respected.
It has to be said that Yang Nuolin has the ability to easily create a joyful atmosphere and liven up the mood of the entire venue.
While Lin Qing was eating, he looked at the two families sitting together in harmony and chatting happily, and a sense of satisfaction welled up in his heart.
During the meal, everyone naturally started talking about each other's interests and hobbies as well as various interesting things that happened in daily life.
Lu Jianing was no longer alone, and she chatted with Lin Rui about her school life.
The meal lasted almost two hours. As it was still early, dessert was served on the table. The atmosphere became more relaxed after the meal and everyone continued to communicate happily.
For Lin's father and mother, this meeting with the Lu family made them feel sincere and respected, and the doubts they had in their hearts disappeared without a trace. At this moment, they just wanted to bless their daughter and be glad that she found her ideal husband and a reasonable and good in-law family.
As everyone was immersed in the joyful atmosphere, Yang Nuolin smiled and said, "Here are three auspicious dates for the two of you to get married, as given by the master." She paused, and then reported the specific dates: "The first one is December 12th at the end of the year; the second one is the upcoming New Year's Day; the third one is October 20th next year. The final choice of which day to be the wedding day still needs to be decided after careful discussion by everyone."
At this time, Wu Wanhong expressed her own opinion: "It's almost the end of the year and New Year's Day. Isn't it too hasty to make relevant preparations?"
Lu Yanqi on the side immediately said: "The key is to see the opinions of the parents and Qingqing herself. For me, there is plenty of time. Qingqing and I will take time to take wedding photos. As for all matters related to the wedding, I will arrange for someone to take care of it properly."
He is looking forward to holding this grand wedding as soon as possible! He can't wait to see his beloved wife's stunning beauty in a white wedding dress.
If we postpone the wedding until October next year, who knows if we might accidentally have a baby by then. That would affect the overall effect of Lin Qing wearing the wedding dress, and maybe even the wedding date might be delayed.
They definitely won't decide which day tonight. Yang Nuolin decided to take her in-laws to visit the attractions in G City in the next two days. They will discuss the general process of the wedding at that time and make a decision based on the opinions of the two children. Anyway, as a mother-in-law, she is happy to follow up the wedding throughout the whole process.
After eating dessert, Lin Rui took the subway back to the company dormitory, Lu Jianing took a taxi back to school, Lu Haochen and Yang Nuolin were sent back by a driver, and Lu Yanqi sent Lin Qing and her parents back, but Lu Yanqi was drunk, so of course Gu Nan drove.
Lin Qing asked Gu Nan to park the car at the gate of Zuizhuyuan Community. She wanted her parents to familiarize themselves with the roads in the community.
Lu Yanqi followed Lin Qing and the others out of the car. Lin's father and mother knew that their daughter and son-in-law had something to say, so they walked away a few steps.
"Spend time with your parents-in-law tonight. I'll pick you up for work tomorrow morning." Lu Yanqi said to Lin Qing, his eyes full of reluctance.
While his father-in-law and mother-in-law were not looking over here, he stepped forward and gently hugged Lin Qing, kissed her on the forehead before letting her go.
Lin Qing said softly: "Okay, then go back and rest early."
"Well, see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
